I spent much of the weekend curled up on the sofa with my family, hooked on the action from the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics. The sheer speed, skill and courage of the athletes never fails to amaze, and this time around the action is being brought to us armchair viewers from new and immersive angles, thanks to custom-made FPV drones.
Tracking the luge – the fastest sport on ice – down narrow channels, and whizzing down mountainsides in pursuit of downhill skiers exceeding 80mph, drones are capturing a sense of speed and drama like never before at the Winter Games.
